Mimi Sue's Cottage

A home is much more than a house built of lumber, brick, or stone. A home is made of love, sacrifice, and respect. We are responsible for the homes we build. We must build wisely, for eternity is not a short voyage. There will be calm and wind, sunlight and shadows, joy and sorrow. But if we really try, our home can be a bit of heaven here on earth.Thomas S Monson

Crock Pot Cake

This cake is pretty darn good. You bake it in a crockpot. So if your oven is full of something else, like a roast or whatever, you've got a place to make dessert.

It's also a great way to save a little energy and no frosting is needed. We love it served with vanilla ice cream.

I didn't take a picture of the finished product. It was eaten too fast.

Sheesh, you and your daughters are creative. I'm way behind in blogging (a major first) and saw all your daughters' birthday party decorating. That garland for the one-year-old party is so dang cute and I only wish I were creative enough to think up the 5-yr-old's party. It's probably because their mom is so creative.

Can you be my surrogate mom? (Just don't tell my real mom--she's creative, too, we're just not very...motivated or...efficient, so most of the creativity stops at the big idea phase.)

About Mimi

I am a wife and mom of four, "Mimi" of seven. I live in a brand new house in an old historic neighborhood. We are finishing the house and yard, and trying to adjust to retirement. I love to thrift and go to yard sales. I love to cook, garden, stitch, think up projects for the mister, and play with the grandbabies.
